i need to respray my splitter, side skirts and rear bumper again, as the 1st spray job is cracking off. i heard that i need a latex based paint so it can flex. anyone know where i can get this from? as im hopefully borrowing my mates compressor soon.

The car is a dark mica green on a 97 classic turbo. Code 64C i think

cheers

Personally, after having a brilliant job done, I'd suggest a trip down to Little Knocks. Not very expensive at all and a top job.

as far as i know you can get an additive that you put in with the paint to make it flexable,try conntacting a couple of body repair shops for more info.

Bought all i need today, plastic primer, paint, laquer, lacker hardener, and the much needed "laquer flexible additive". Also got the thinner and cleaning fluids. Total of £71. Should be fun and interesting this weekend.

Sy, be careful when putting the laquer on, it's very runny so turn the spray down, don't spray it on like the base coat, take your time

 

cheers, does anyone know of a guide on the net?, been looking but not had much joy, ive got a spare wing im going to practice on.
